WARNING:
========
This is a developer version. Even though I use it in my productive
environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
From the HISTORY file:
- Added maximum SNR value for PCTV Systems nanoStick T2 290e (thanks to Antti
Hartikainen).
- Added a remark indicating that the coordinates of Rect in a call to
cDevice::CanScaleVideo() are in the range of the width and height returned by
GetOsdSize() (suggested by Reinhard Nissl).
- Modified the Makefiles (thanks to Christopher Reimer).
By default VDR is now built according to the FHS ("File system Hierarchy Standard"),
and a plain "make" in the VDR source directory just builds everything, but doesn't
copy it to ./PLUGINS/lib and ./locale any more. You can use a Make.config file
(copied from Make.config.template) and set the parameter LCLBLD=1 to have everything
built and installed under the VDR source tree (as was the default in previous
versions). If you already have your own Make.config file, you may want to copy the
new Make.config.template and adapt it to your needs. If you don't want VDR's data
files to be spread around your system according to the FHS, you can set the
parameter ONEDIR=1 (using Make.config) to have all files in one /video directory as
before.
- Fixed the example for cReceiver in PLUGINS.html.
- Fixed sorting recordings in case two folders have the same name, but one of them
ends in an additional digit, as in "abc" and "abc2" (reported by Andreas Mair).
- Added "repeat" function when using the keyboard to control VDR (thanks to Reinhard
Nissl).
- The SVDRP command LSTR now knows the additional parameter "path", which can be
given to get the actual file name of a recording's directory (suggested by
Stefan Stolz).
- Fixed multiple occurrences of the same directory in the recordings list in case there
are directories that only differ in non-alphanumeric characters (reported by Andreas
Mair).
- Absolute jumps when replaying a recording (via the Red key) are now only performed
if an actual value has been entered (suggested by Ulf Kiener).
- The last replayed recording is now stored in setup.conf, which allows the blue
"Resume" key in the main menu to work even after a restart of VDR.
- The SVDRP command NEWT no longer checks whether a timer with the given data already
exists (suggested by Malte Forkel).
- Implemented scaling of SPU bitmaps (thanks to Johann Friedrichs).
- Improved cutting MPEG-2 video (thanks to Sören Moch).
- Reduced the number of retries in cTransfer::Receive() to avoid blocking recordings
in case the primary device can't handle the current live signal.

WARNING:
========
This is a developer version. Even though I use it in my productive
environment. I strongly recommend that you only use it under controlled
conditions and for testing and debugging.
From the HISTORY file:
- Changed the type of the TimerMatch parameter in cSkinDisplayMenu::SetItemEvent() from
'int' to 'eTimerEvent' (reported by Christoph Haubrich).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed cOsd::GetBitmap() to always return NULL if a non-exising area is requested.
- Added several missing "`ls $^`" in the calls to xgettext in plugin Makefiles and the
"newplugin" script.
- Fixed setting the --package-name and --package-version options in the calls to
xgettext in several plugin Makefiles.
- Added "-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE" to the
DEFINES in the Makefile (somehow got lost from Make.config.template in version 1.7.13).
- Removed some redundancy in the Makefile/Make.global/Make.config mechanism (suggested
by Christopher Reimer). The file Make.global is no longer used, and plugin Makefiles
don't include the file Make.config any more. Instead they now retrieve all necessary
information through calls to pkg-config.
- The plugin Makefiles now have a separate 'install' target (suggested by Christopher
Reimer). In order to still allow the normal building of VDR (with all plugins in its
./PLUGINS/src subdirectory, the plugin libraries in ./PLUGINS/lib and the i18n files in
./locale) the VDR Makefile checks the settings of LIBDIR and LOCDIR when building the
plugins from within the VDR source directory. If these macros have their default values,
then the 'install' targets of the plugins' Makefiles are called. Otherwise the 'all'
targets are called and the plugins are merely built, and will have to be installed by a
call to 'make install-plugins'. This now also allows a user to copy a plugin source to
any directory, change into that directory and do 'make' and 'make install' to have the
plugin installed to wherever the local installation of VDR expects them.
- Plugin Makefiles now use DESTDIR and the 'install' program (thanks to Christopher Reimer).
- Due to the changes to the plugin Makefiles, existing plugins will not build with this
version of VDR any more. You can either use the new 'newplugin' script to generate a
dummy plugin directory and use the Makefile from there (adapting it to your particular
plugin), or apply the patch from
ftp://ftp.tvdr.de/vdr/Developer/vdr-1.7.33-pluginmakefile.diff
to your Makefile to make the necessary changes (see comments in that file for details).
- Added the new menu categories mcChannelEdit, mcTimerEdit, mcScheduleNow, mcScheduleNext,
mcRecordingInfo, mcPluginSetup, mcSetupOsd, mcSetupEpg, mcSetupDvb, mcSetupLnb,
mcSetupCam, mcSetupRecord, mcSetupReplay, mcSetupMisc and mcSetupPlugins.
- Updated the Italian OSD texts (thanks to Diego Pierotto).
- Fixed replay stuttering close to the end of an ongoing recording (reported by Andreas
Regel).
- Fixed cIndexFile::GetNextIFrame() to properly handle the case where the very last frame
is an I-frame (which normally shouldn't occur).
- Fixed replaying ongoing recordings from other VDR instances.

- Added missing install-i18n to the install target in the Makefile (reported
by Joachim Wilke).
- Fixed a faulty comment in Make.config.template (reported by Marco Schlüßler).
- Improved i18n-to-gettext.pl (thanks to Matthias Schwarzott).
- Moved the "all" target in plugin Makefiles before the "Implicit rules",
so that a plain "make" will compile everything (suggested by Matthias
Schwarzott). The "newplugin" script has been changed accordingly.
Plugin authors may want to change their Makefiles, too.
- Added DESTDIR and PREFIX handling to the Makefile (thanks to Matthias
Schwarzott).
- Updated the Finnish OSD texts (thanks to Rolf Ahrenberg).
- Added internationalization to the "skincurses" plugin (thanks to Rolf
Ahrenberg).
- Checking the string for NULL in I18nTranslate().
- Updated the French OSD texts (thanks to Bruno Roussel).
- Some optimizations in cDvbDevice::SetChannelDevice() (thanks to Tobias Bratfisch).
- Optimized cMenuEditChrItem::Set() (thanks to Tobias Bratfisch).
- Optimized cNitFilter::Process() (thanks to Tobias Bratfisch).
- Reduced the number of time(NULL) calls in vdr.c's main loop to a single call
(thanks to Tobias Bratfisch).
- Changed cBitmap::DrawText() to always draw the background unless ColorBg
is clrTransparent (thanks to Christoph Haubrich).
- The "Setup/OSD/Language" menu now only shows those languages that actually
have a locale (suggested by Anssi Hannula).
- Now using setenv() instead of setlocale() to set the language for gettext()
(suggested by Anssi Hannula; thanks also to Ludwig Nussel for a hint on using
_nl_msg_cat_cntr).
- When scanning the locale directory, VDR now explicitly looks for a file named
vdr.mo. Text files for plugins are now named "vdr-name.mo", when "name" is the
name of the plugin. The "newplugin" script has been changed accordingly, and
plugin authors should change their Makefiles, too.

- Added some missing braces in remux.c (thanks to Wayne Keer for reporting this one).
- Removed unused MAINMENUENTRY from svdrpdemo.c (thanks to Udo Richter for reporting
this one).
- Fixed appending sequence end code in cDvbPlayer::Goto() (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Fixed syncing in cRepacker (thanks to Reinhard Nissl).
- Now always using stream id 0xE0 for the video stream, to avoid problems with
post processing tools that choke on different ids (suggested by Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Estonian OSD texts (thanks to Arthur Konovalov).
- Fixed cDvbPlayer::SkipFrames() to properly handle radio recordings (thanks to
Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Swedish OSD texts (thanks to Tomas Prybil).
- Updated the Slovenian OSD texts (thanks to Matjaz Thaler).
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Made LIRC command parsing more robust (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Introduced a separate 'plugins-install' target in the Makefile (thanks to Daniel
Thompson).
- Re-introduced the code that waits for a tuner lock in VDR/device.c, since
apparently some users actually need it. It's not active by default, you'll have
to define the WAIT_FOR_TUNER_LOCK macro in that file if you need it (suggested
by Malcolm Caldwell).
- Adjusted the Makefile to the dvb-kernel driver on kernel 2.6 and up (thanks to
Lauri Tischler).
- Repeat keys are now ignored when waiting for a keypress to cancel an operation
(thanks to Marko Mäkelä).
- The main menu function of a plugin can now be activated through a key macro of
the form "@plugin" even if that plugin doesn't have a main menu entry (using
part of a patch by Hardy Flor, which originally implemented calling plugins from
SVDRP).
- The menu timeout handling is now done centrally in the main program loop.
- Added missing help for the 'help' keyword in the SVDRP command PLUG.
- The main menu function of a plugin can now be called programmatically through
the static function cRemote::CallPlugin().
- The SVDRP command PLUG now has a new option 'main' which can be used to initiate
a call to the main menu function of a plugin (using part of a patch by Hardy Flor).
- The new command line option '--vfat' can be used to make VDR encode special
characters in recording file names, even if it wasn't compiled with VFAT=1
(suggested by Peter Bieringer). The compile time option VFAT still exists and
creates a VDR that always behaves as if it were called with '--vfat'.
- Replaced the ':' delimiter between hour and minute in recording file names with
a '.' under Linux, too. Existing recordings with ':' as delimiter will still work.
- Implemented the SVDRP command MOVC (thanks to Andreas Brachold).
- Added support for multiple audio language codes in ISO639LanguageDescriptors to
'libsi' (thanks to Marcel Wiesweg).
- Changed the audio PID language codes to hold up to two 3 letter codes, separated
by '+', to store separate languages broadcast in two channel audio mode.
- If the preferred audio language is broadcast on a PID that has two different
languages in the two stereo channels, the audio channel is now properly set when
switching to such a channel (thanks to Mogens Elneff for his help in testing this).
- Fixed some typos in MANUAL (thanks to Ville Skyttä).
- Fixed the default value for "Setup/EPG bugfix level" (thanks to Ville Skyttä for
reporting this one).
- Fixed defining timers that only differ in the day of week (thanks to Patrick
Rother for reporting this one).
- Fixed converting summary.vdr files that would result in a very long 'short text'
(thanks to Carsten Koch).
- Implemented a hash for the channels to reduce the system load in the EIT scanning
thread (based on a patch by Georg Acher).

- Added missing German OSD texts for 'Audio language'.
- The Setup/CICAM menu now only contains the devices that actually have a CI and
dynamically detects the number of slots a CI provides.
- Implemented cAudioRepacker for better handling of audio PES packets (thanks to
Reinhard Nissl).
- Modified handling of audio packets for radio channels in remux.c (thanks to
Reinhard Nissl).
- Updated the Danish OSD texts (thanks to Mogens Elneff).
- Fixed the EPG scan, so that it doesn't use the primary device if that is
currently in Transfer-Mode from itself (thanks to Marcus Hilbrich for a bug
report that lead to this).
- Removed the TUNER_LOCK_TIMEOUT in cDevice::AttachReceiver() since it caused more
trouble than it fixed.
- Fixed detecting short channel names for "Kabel Deutschland", who uses a comma
as delimiter (thanks to Marco Schlüßler).
- Moved cMenuEditTimer and cMenuEvent to menu.h so that plugins can use it (suggested
by Thomas Günther).
- The new static function cString::sprintf() can be used to easily create a formatted
string.
- Plugins can now implement their own SVDRP commands (based on a patch from Hardy
Flor). See PLUGINS.html, section "SVDRP commands" for details. The SVDRP commands
of a plugin are accessed through the new SVDRP command PLUG.
See PLUGINS/src/svdrpdemo for an example of how to use this feature.
- The new SVDRP command PLAY can be used to start replaying a recording (thanks to
Hardy Flor).
- The new SVDRP command EDIT can be used to start the editing process of a recording
(based on the CUTR patch by Harald Milz).
